Heartland were fired up by the goal and they continue to search for the second goal which later arrived in the 79th minutes from Chinoso Okonkwo after a good team work.
Heartland added the third through Chinoso Okonkwo again in the 87th to seal the three points and leave Maikaba’s side without a win after two games.
